Calender. We need your photos
« on: August 29, 2007, 10:12:01 am »
Thanks to all your pledges to buy, the CA calender is now a goer. What we need now is your input. This is the chance to see your photos helping to secure the future of Club Arnage.

Rick Cutler has kindly offered to host the photos for us to decide which to use.

As stated in the initial thread, the calender will consist of 12 monthly pages + a front cover. Each page will have a main picture + 2/3 smaller inserts, so, we will need about 50  usable photos.

Rather than only pictures of track action we also need your photos of the whole Le Mans and Club Arnage experience, whatever you feel that is.

For example. March could be Sebring based, July - the classic, November could have pics of the DfH end of season party and June, well that should be obvious.

It is your calender so send us anything you want to see in it, campsite action, CA members acting like children (should be plenty of them ;D) cars, Poo Bar, driver pics etc.

If there are any subject that you would like to see included but don't have, put a shout out below and someone may submit one.

Personally I would like to see a photo of Big H arriving on Maison Blanche and the fireworks behind the band at the DfH party included if someone has them.

Please send High Resolution photos to the e-mail address below. Could you restrict it to no more than 3 entries per person at the moment to cut down on the amount of space and time needed.

Rick has set up a 20MB buffer to accomodate them until he can transfer them. He has asked that you only send one at a time to give him a chance not to exceed the buffer.

capics@totalsportscar.com


We are offering a free copy of the calender to the person that enters the photo that becomes the main picture for June. Why June? Well that is the most important month of the year.


Thanks guys. Lets make this a calender to proud of.

Bob.

We have an order for 6 copies (so far) from The Flying Baguettes. Has anyone a pic of them on stage?

include one of BigH's arrival on MB, which I stole from Langtall!!!

There's also one from the Cavalcade and the 'Poo Bar meet.  I have bigger files if they're of interest.

I suggest to place also 1 or 2 historic pics - e.g. Delboy had pics from 1967 which were published in the guide

Come on people where are your photo's, I have less then 10 pics so far! We need at least 12!!!

If you are having trouble with the email account please try, removed, this account gets lots of SPAM so please make sure you enter Club Arnage in the title so it can easily be found.

Please send in what ever pics you have, we are not always after car shots, pictures of people and the year round atmosphere that Le Mans brings.

Keep Snapping.

Rick

Come on guys.........

Already, a lot of work has gone into this project to get it to this stage. Do Bob U (and the CA server fund) a favour and get your pictures over to Rick.

There must be 1000's of pictures out there. I don't think Bob is necessarily looking for masterpieces. It may be the case that the more "amatuer" shots may give the calendar the real feel of Le Mans, from the CA point of view. Please corrct me if I'm wrong.

As a bit of a novelty I am busy at work, not got the time to sort through and send some in, but I will before Monday next week.

Le Mans is for the week......not just 24hrs!

I think that you should also include DfH's "Drinking is Dangerous" sign somewhere too
